Citrus bomb - long pause - Error 404

I've owned this fragrance for a week now and what can I say
Uden is a very light, wearable and - I would say - boring fragrance.
It starts with a very dominant citrus/grapefruit mix, which remains at the forefront for the entire fragrance. I don't notice the other listed fragrance notes at all during the entire drydown. My very practiced nose has extreme problems catching a fragrance development, if there is one at all.
None of this would even bother me if it wasn't such a pungent citrus bomb
Citrus x grapefruit are very aggressive, at least in this composition attempt, especially in the first 15 minutes, after which the intensity decreases significantly and it becomes quite pleasant. This first quarter of an hour is clearly a bit too much. It lasts surprisingly long on my skin (7 hours)
Plus the hefty price tag of 240€ RRP..
Buy the fragrance yourself for that price? Never!
If there are good offers or remaining bottles here in the souk, I would still buy it, but otherwise not (I also got the fragrance as a gift)

Even if Xerjoff is my absolute favorite house, the Uden could not convince me.
For me it will be nothing more than a daily-freshie which even a 70€ designer fragrance can do, unfortunately!
